A fire that erupted Thursday in a tire repair lot on the east end of Moreno Valley was contained before reaching several tractor-trailers parked at the facility.
The non-injury blaze was reported about 12:20 p.m. in the 28800 block of Spruce Avenue, just north of the Moreno Valley (60) Freeway, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.
The agency said that multiple engine crews were sent to the location and encountered flames raging in a line of truck tires, posing an immediate threat to several big rigs.
Firefighters quickly established a perimeter, preventing the blaze from reaching the trucks.
By 12:50 p.m., the fire was completely contained, according to reports from the scene.
The cause of the blaze was under investigation.
